from Radical Joy with James Bullard Hosted by James E. Bullard

Ever feel like you're doing all the things — and still not getting better? What if the missing piece isn’t more effort... but making space to slow down?In this episode, we talk about the lost art of tarrying — and why pressing pause might be exactly what your growth needs. 🌀 Tarry, don’t hustle — reclaiming an old church word as your new go-to for mental health 🔊 Why the gym told me to chill — and why I’m actually grateful 🍰 Cheese cake diplomacy — how talking kunefe at Tal Cafe helped me connect in Dutch 🧠 Diminishing returns are real — and your brain needs time to file things away 🔥 Envy and spite... as motivation? — hear me out 🎭 Comparison is forever — but here’s how I’m making peace with it 🎮 Gamify it or forget it — why play makes everything stick better 🥴 Duolingo is driving me wild — but I keep showing up anyway 💪 Growth happens during rest — in the gym and in life 📌 You’re not behind — you’re just marinating in your own magic Slowing down isn’t lazy—it’s smart. Hit play and give yourself permission to tarry a little.
